When asked about the “Unabomber,” Greg enthusiastically replied that he hadn’t read anything by him but believed that anyone who bombs people without warning is the lowest form of coward. He firmly believed that such actions completely undermine anything the person has to say, no matter how clear their message may be. In Greg’s opinion, these individuals don’t deserve to have a voice, just like any other terrorists.
On the other hand, Brett, in a playful and excited manner, expressed his stance on violence. He stated that he is generally against violence in almost all cases, but as a last resort, he is not completely opposed to it. He believed that there are certain groups who need to stand up for themselves and make their presence known by any means necessary. In fact, he even suggested that more rioting is needed and that urban terrorism is a viable option. Referring to the L.A. Riots of 1992, Brett felt that they ended too soon and that another month of chaos would have achieved their goals. Despite his support for violence as a last resort, he still emphasized the importance of individuals and groups standing up for themselves and getting noticed.
